  • Finding Out about Falun Dafa in Singapore

    The practitioner in-charge was very helpful and patient. She taught me thoroughly. What amazed me was that I did not have to pay a penny to learn it. Several days passed, and my sleeping problem improved tremendously. After several weeks, I finally got over the insomnia which had been troubling me for so many years.
  • Tsing-Hua University Alumnus Tries to Persuade Hu Jintao: Stop Persecuting Falun Gong

    From the afternoon of the 10th to the morning of the 12th, Falun Gong practitioners from nearly twenty different countries engaged in a petition near Hotel Adlon where Hu Jintao stayed, appealing for the termination of the persecution of Falun Gong. On the 11th of November, 2005, Hu Jintao paid a visit to such places as the Congress of Germany and the Premier's office. The following is my experience of that day...
  • On Excuses and Evasions in Cultivation

    When something happens, we may remain superficially peaceful, but in our minds we may have attachments that run rampant. In some cases, we know it is a test, but we still argue with others, while in our minds we say to ourselves, "I am not being attached. I just can not help arguing." But why do we argue if we are not attached? Doesn't the fact that we argue with others mean we are attached?
  • Alleged "Self-Immolation" on Nanchang Street Shows that Chinese Communist Party Is on Its Last Legs

    The police officers at the scene panicked because they were afraid she would call out the truth. But by this time Ms. Wang was so exhausted from the severe torture she endured that she could no longer stand up. Finally, when the fire had gone out completely, it was found that the front of her body was burned while her back did not have any signs of burning. Moreover, there were deep knife wounds on her throat and the back of her head.
  • Why Should We Appeal for Falun Gong?

    When a benefactor suffers injustice, when good people suffer tribulation, we must step out in his defence. This is a basic human principle. Falun Gong practitioners follow the principle of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" and they have greatly benefited from it. When Falun Gong suffers such a terrible injustice of so many kindhearted practitioners in China being persecuted, how can we not speak out for justice?
  • Finding My Deeply Hidden, Fundamental Attachment

    I did not learn Falun Dafa because I had illness or was unhappy with my life. When I practised other exercises for cultivating my body before, I did not know why I wanted to practise. However, when I first learnt about Falun Dafa, my heart felt so happy as if all my life I had been waiting for this. Thus, even after Master published the article "Towards Consummation," I didn't pay much attention to it. I believed that my intentions in learning Falun Dafa were pure.
  • Earnestly and Conscientiously Practising Falun Dafa

    I started to talk about the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners, and told them the story about a young practitioner whose face was disfigured by electric shocks. I related the story where a fellow practitioner was sentenced to four years in prison just because she talked in a park about how she had recovered from illness through practising Falun Gong. After hearing these stories, the old woman changed her attitude and said to me, "You can go now."
  • Lawyer from Jinan, China: "Brainwashing Violates China's Laws"

    Mr. Liu wrote an open letter to the Chinese government, detailing how the detentions and brainwashing of Falun Gong practitioners violate China's own laws. He urged the government to "immediately stop the forced brainwashing of Falun Gong practitioners." The following is his letter.
  • A Government Official Comments on a Street Committee's Unfair Treatment of Falun Gong Practitioners

    Right now, I am truly worried for those who have either directly or indirectly persecuted Falun Gong. In another district of Dalian, the local police stations are actively helping Falun Gong practitioners to obtain their social living allowance. As a person, one should be compassionate, and moreover, should differentiate between right and wrong, any means to try to change a belief in righteousness and truthfulness is irrational.
  • What Type of Information Is Instilled into the Minds of Children in China?

    I have met a lot of people who didn’t know the truth about Falun Gong over the past few years, but it was most saddening when the kids told me that they were afraid of Falun Gong. Tears welled up my eyes when I heard their words. Children are born innocent. The evil Chinese Communist Party has planted the seeds of hatred towards Falun Gong in the minds of children in China. Their minds have become twisted. How could such children become mentally healthy people when they grow up?
  • Victims of the Persecution Are Not Limited to Those who Practise Falun Gong

    Xiaozhang said, "They are vicious people! In order to stop me from appealing to the higher authorities, they told people that I was a Falun Gong practitioner. The police therefore tried to arrest me. The fact is, I didn't know about Falun Gong at all, let alone practise Falun Gong. I was forced to leave home and eventually I managed to come here to Canada. They are so malicious!"
  • Pacific Magazine, CNMI: Falun Gong Practitioner Gets Refugee Status

    A final grant of refugee protection has been given to a Falun Gong practitioner after successfully convincing the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands (CNMI) Attorney General's Office (AGO) that she would face persecution or torture if she is deported back to China, The Marianas Variety learnt.
  • My Cultivation Experience

    For a while, the material production sites sprang up everywhere like bamboo shoots after the rain. People in rural areas learnt how to use computers in four days. A 70-year-old woman learnt how to use a computer in two weeks, and then an 80-year-old senior citizen and students learnt how to use computers. I also began from zero, same as the other practitioners, knowing nothing. But our hearts were being led by Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance and we simply wished to let others learn the truth about the practice and the persecution.
  • Master Is Always Beside Us

    I read an article stating that a practitioner had given up cultivation because for a long time he could not see any supernatural things and thus he lost righteous faith in Falun Dafa. After reading this article, I felt it was such a pity that this practitioner gave up the predestined cultivation opportunity that happens only once in a thousand years, particularly when the Fa-rectification is near its end. With the many practitioners who cannot see things in other dimensions in mind, I would like to share my cultivation experiences.
  • Researchers Discover that Meditation Builds up the Brain

    Ten volunteers were tested before and after 40 minutes of either sleep, meditation, reading or light conversation, with all subjects trying all conditions. The 40-minute nap was known to improve performance (after an hour or so to recover from grogginess). But what astonished the researchers was that meditation was the only intervention that immediately led to superior performance, despite none of the volunteers being experienced at meditation.
